Reveals how colleges' and universities' efforts to foster a sense of belonging in their students are misguided. Colleges bombard students with the message to ‘get out there!’ and ‘find your place’ by joining student organisations, sports teams, and clubs. Nunn shows that this reflects a flawed understanding of what belonging is and how it works.
